Wintergreen: The Oil of Surrender, Release & Radical Freedom

Some things you don’t need to carry anymore.
Some patterns you’re ready to break.
Some weight on your shoulders? It was never yours to begin with.

Enter: Wintergreen.

This oil is not for the faint of heart. It’s for the brave ones — the ones standing at the edge of what was, finally ready to step into what could be. Wintergreen is the oil of deep release. Emotional, energetic, spiritual. She doesn’t tidy up your pain — she clears it out completely. Like fresh air after a storm. Like the breath you didn’t know you were holding.

If your soul has been whispering, “It’s time to let go,” wintergreen is your answer.

This is the oil of surrender — but not surrender in the sense of giving up. It’s the sacred kind. The powerful kind. The kind where you lay down the armor, drop the struggle, and trust that freedom is on the other side.

Wintergreen dissolves resistance — to healing, to change, to rest, to truth. She’s a disruptor of illusion. She gently but firmly helps you release control, especially when clinging is only causing more pain.

Emotionally, she’s powerful for:

• Releasing generational burdens and inherited trauma

• Letting go of resentment, bitterness, or inner resistance

• Healing old emotional wounds stored in the body

Ways to work with Wintergreen essential oil:

• Dilute and apply to shoulders or the back — symbolic of releasing emotional weight.

• Diffuse during a releasing ritual, full moon, or breathwork session.

• Blend with frankincense to bring spiritual clarity, or lemongrass for energetic sweeping.

• Use in bodywork or reflexology to support physical and emotional detox.

Wintergreen says:
You don’t have to fight anymore.
You are allowed to exhale.
You are allowed to be free.

Let this be the month you stop forcing.
Stop fixing.
Stop carrying what was never yours.

Let wintergreen create space where there used to be pain.
Let her clear the way for peace.
